New Kid on the Block: LmbU Expands the Repertoire of Specialized Metabolic Regulators in Streptomyces
Abstract
Streptomyces has an extensive natural product repertoire, including most of the naturally derived antibiotics. Understanding the control of natural product biosynthesis is central to antibiotic discovery and production optimization. Here, Hou et al. (J. Bacteriol. 200:00447-17, 2018, https://doi.org/10.1128/JB.00447-17) report the identification and characterization of a novel regulator-LmbU-that functions primarily as an activator of …
